Facebook vs. Myspace
One of the world's most popular online destinations, Facebook, has officially overthrown Myspace in becoming the #1 social networking portal in America. In 2008, Facebook surpassed Myspace in worldwide subscribers, though it trailed (not far) behind in national users. How did this happen? Myspace lost 5% of its patrons, while Facebook nearly doubled in size.
The second position isn't too bad, considering the third-in-line social networking website, Twitter, is nearly 110 million subscribers away from the two Internet front-runners. Although third in command, Twitter should still be considered a threat by its competition. Since 2008, Twitter's user-base has grown an impressive 2,700%! If you haven't jumped on the social networking band-wagon, there has never been a better time to join. Aren't you curious to know what the fuss is about? Imagine keeping in touch with friends, sharing pictures with family members, and lurking former lovers with ease! With Facebook, 200 million of your closest friends are in one convenient location.
